The Humanity Test Bot is a robot sculpture that is quite literally testing humanity. Every minute it tallies up how frequently pairs of words (such as good/bad and save/kill) are mentioned onTwitter and displays the results. Each letter of the word HUMANITY corresponds to one of the word pairs, with the lights lit when the “white hat” option is ahead and out when the “black hat” option is ahead. The overall percentages and tally of Tweets is displayed on the digits in the bottom half of the backgammon suitcase. So, humanity, what’s your face today?
